I don't know where you are located ,but is there a Bumper to Bumper Auto
parts store near you?
One of these just opened near me ,so I stopped in last Saturday to ask my
obligatory question,
"I need front brake pads for my 67 Imperial, do you have them ?.
After the mandatory mix-up of D-10 Vs the later Imperial pads (which
involved me showing him the difference with the spare D-10 set I have ) .
the guy did some checking and claims to be able to get D-10 pads any day of
the week !.
He was such a good salesman that I plunked down my $18 including tax to
take a chance that he knew what he was talking about.
The pads are supposed to be here this coming Saturday.
I will let everyone know if it pans out.
Clay Smith 67 Crown Coupe (the NAPA dealer in town could have cared less
about my pads!)
60 Custom ( with brake shoes easy to find )

My everlasting thanks to Mike Pittinaro for the info on the Supra rotor
conversion. Now I just need to find out where to get new pads. Someone has
mentioned NAPA but my local NAPA pleads Ignorance.
